Two HS^2 Students Earned Perfect Scores on the Advanced Placement® (AP) Research Exam. Lexi Strickland and Anna Sueflohn were among 357 students (out of more than 30,000 nationwide) to earn this distinction. Their extraordinary accomplishments highlight the ongoing efforts to support academic excellence in the Kettle Moraine School District. They also speak to the incredible learning environment provided by our High School of Health Sciences, which was recently named the best high school in Wisconsin by US News. We are so proud of Lexi, Anna, and all of our AP students and teachers. AP courses and exams provide opportunities to take college-level courses, and earn college credits and placements, while still in high school. We will be featuring an interview with Lexi and Anna in tomorrow's Laser Focused, so watch your "in-box" to learn more about the wonderful things that are happening at KM!

Good morning and we hope you are enjoying the first week of school! We've made a few changes to our website over the summer that we'd like to share with you. Our new platform combines all of our communication tools into one environment, saving us time and money; making us more efficient; but also, allowing us to utilize a system that works well on mobile devices and provides the features users have come to expect. We realize change takes time, and we'd like to offer a few simple tips to help our KM Community navigate the new site.
We have provided a video tour, at https://vimeo.com/859950194?sh. Remember to re-bookmark your frequently visited pages and add us to your contacts! There is also a mobile app that can be downloaded using the page footer or the links below.
For a quick summary of the navigation, there are two primary drop down menus in the upper right corner of every page. They are "schools" and "menu." Schools will allow you to select a location. Menu will allow you to select information that pertains to that location. The + symbols in the menu reveal additional pages in that category.
If you have questions or are having trouble finding things, feel free to contact me at ottosara@kmsd.edu

The first day of school is always an exciting time. This year, the District Office leadership took a field trip to visit with teachers and students. It is always great to get out of the office and into classrooms to share in our students' learning. The high school and middle school students were already delving into subject matter and getting settled into their routines.

Summer Academy is filled with classes that allow students to learn, while experiencing many wonderful activities. Mr. Tenhover's (Papa T's) fishing class is a great example. The students get to fish each day and enjoy the beauty of being on the water.
